"Oh, don't believe everything you read in the papers unless it comes from the horse's mouth!" Jessica told Digital Spy. "You'll have to ask Courtney on that one… but no, we're just good friends."

Still, now that Courtney is facing off against Alana Spencer in the final, Jessica added that she is "100%" backing him to win.

But she remained tight-lipped about those romance rumours otherwise, so what about Grainne and Paul?

"I did hear one or two rumours myself!" Grainne told us. "Obviously they're going to pinpoint the four single people in the house, me and Paul being two of them. We got on really, really well, we all hung out and watched movies and stuff, but romances?

"I've been very much single all year and I'm going to keep it that way until 2017, until my husband comes and sweeps me off my feet. I haven't found him yet either!"

Oh well… though Grainne did reveal that she got very close to finalist Alana, whom she described as her "little sidekick".

"Our beds were beside each other, so we were automatically stuck to each other's hip," she said. "I watched her turn from a young timid little girl and transform into a woman over ten weeks. She literally just progressed throughout that whole process and everybody undermined her, and I said from day one she was going to be in the final."

Aww. But either Grainne or Jessica are going to be disappointed as there can only be one winner - and we'll get to see who that is when The Apprentice airs its grand final on Sunday (December 18) at 9pm on BBC One.
